The British American Tobacco Nigeria Foundation (BATN Foundation) has distributed poultry birds, essential feeds to support over 300 vulnerable women in Bauchi State.
BATN Foundation implemented a poultry project to support 300 rural and vulnerable women in Bauchi as part of efforts to improve livelihoods and combat poverty in vulnerable communities.
This poultry project aligns with the BATN Foundation’s dedication to empowering rural communities in Nigeria by fostering self-reliance through income generation and improved nutrition.
The project aims to create a lasting impact on women, their families, and the Bauchi State economy.
This initiative which focused on poultry production, aims to generate income, promote gender equality, and combat poverty in vulnerable communities.

Recognising the importance of collaborations, the BATN Foundation partnered key stakeholders including the Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security which assisted in beneficiary selection and ensured project alignment with national agricultural priorities,and the Bauchi State ADP Office which provided local expertise and streamlined beneficiary selection through their established networks.
Other partners include: Amo Farm Sieberer Hatchery Limited, which supplied the high-quality noiler birds and offered technical support to women, ensuring project longevity, and Eco-lead Imperial Engineering & Global Services Ltd which implemented the project, managing all activities from beneficiary selection to training and inputs distribution.

The 300 beneficiary women were selected across seven Local Government Areas (LGAs) in the State – Bauchi, Shira, Tafawa Balewa, Alkaleri, Warji, Ganjuwa, Toro and each received a carefully curated package including 20 noiler birds, one bag of 25kg specially formulated feed and one 100g sachet of essential vitamins for poultry production.
Furthermore, to broaden their knowledge of poultry management, beneficiaries were also equipped with adequate training and sensitisation to ensure best practices in poultry production. Noilers were selected because of their dual purpose to produce both eggs and meat.
The commissioner for Agriculture in Bauchi state, Professor Simon Madugu Yalams, while delivering his speech, expressed gratitude to BATN Foundation for choosing Bauchi state to benefit from the initiative.
He commended the tireless efforts of everyone involved in bringing the project to fruition. In his address, the commissioner emphasised the commitment of the Bauchi state government, through his ministry, to sustain the project with an innovative approach that complements and supports the beneficiaries, ensuring long-term success.
He urged beneficiaries to utilise the support effectively and appealed for more gestures from individuals and corporate organisations.
The general manager of BATNF, Oludare Odusanya, represented by Engr. Sadiq Abdullahi Waziri, underscored the foundation’s dedication to enhancing the well-being of rural farmers.
In his statement, he highlighted that over N5 billion has been invested in farmers through strategically designed impactful projects since the foundation’s establishment in 2002. Odusanya emphasised that the project serves as a pilot, with the potential for scaling up due to its direct positive impact on smallholder rural farmers.
Also speaking on behalf of Eco-Lead Global Services, Dr. Umar Abdullahi Mania expressed satisfaction with the collaboration received from the Bauchi state government through BSADP.
He urged beneficiaries to prioritise appropriate biosecurity measures and ensure the adequate feeding of their birds as essential steps in safeguarding their livelihoods. Dr. Maina concluded by calling on extension agents from BSADP and the ministry to continue offering steadfast support in providing routine extension services for the beneficiaries
